A borrower can get access to the loan amount they need by mortgaging gold jewellery that may be lying idle at home. 

Since gold jewellery serves as a security, the interest rate on the loan is usually lower than that on an unsecured loan. This is one of the main reasons that make secured loans the preferred alternative to unsecured loans and credit cards. 

Borrowers can apply for a Bajaj Finserv Gold Loan of up to Rs 2 crore by pledging gold jewellery. 

Bajaj Finserv Gold Loan: Part-release facility

Borrowers can also take advantage of the part-release facility - which lets one get back a part of their pledged jewellery by repaying the equivalent amount. Zero charges on part and full prepayment. 

Besides competitive interest rates, Bajaj Finserv also offers the borrower the option to pay back a part of or the entire loan amount at no extra cost.
